It is believed that Vex are not born or made, so much as converted. When [[Asher Mir]] was infected with Radiolarian fluid, his arm turned into a Vex construct. [[Kabr, the Legionless]] suffered a similar fate, after fashioning armor made from Vex parts, becoming assimilated in the end. This also explains why Radiolarian fluid deals damage when stepped in. In the opening cinematic for ''[[Season of the Undying]]'' however, Vex constructs are seen inactive in what is described as a "gestation lake",<ref>'''[https://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2017/09/05/destiny-2-concept-art/?slideshow=5387#/slide/18 Destiny 2 Concept Art Gallery]''': ''Vex Army Gestation Lakes''</ref> where Radiolarian fluid finds its way into constructs to bring them to life. It is possible that manufacture supplements conversion or that newly-converted constructs may need to undergo additional processing before they can be activated. | It is believed that Vex are not born or made, so much as converted.

Asher even stated that Taking Vex would be suicidal and risky as the Vex infect everything they touch, their self-replicating subroutines would consume them from the inside out, whether they are ignored or it is part of a calculated risk is still unclear at the time.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/quest-calculated-action-dynasty?highlight=suppress Quest:Calculated Action, Dynasty]</ref> | ||
